What Does This Community Health Indicator Mean?
The California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) is the largest, most comprehensive effort in the nation to assess students at the local level on a regular basis to provide key data on school climate, learning supports and barriers, overall youth development, health, and well-being. The surveys provide a wealth of information to guide school improvement efforts. The CHKS is administered every two years. Currently, a statewide report is published every other odd year (most recent report: 2013-2015) and Butte County reports are published every other even year (most recent report: 2014-2016).
We are tracking the number of 11th grade students who report consuming at least one drink of alcohol in the past 30 days. Through Butte County’s life-skills curriculum interventions, we would hope to see this trend decrease over time. Click Here to Access the California Healthy Kids Survey Website
